Every Rogue Dinner begins the way that every good dinner party should: with a cocktail.

The Rogue Chefs enlist the help of local mixologists to create cocktails that will compliment the hors d’oeuvres and also follow the theme of the evening.

The charred lime adds a further note of depth … and makes for a great presentation as well!

Because of this canine-love I was pleased to find this perfect not-so-sweet and salty cocktail to finish out the Salt Issue of The Insatiable Lens: The Salty Dog Cocktail
